He hasn't posted since the 21st of last month.

Has he finally watched one to many art house movies and his brain has decided nup that's enough for me I'm out this bitch and he's lying comatose in a hospital bed somewhere?
Too few, Swoop. Too few. :cry:

But thanks for caring about me. :? ;)

Is this the place to leave the shattered remains of Barry Hall's post-AFL career?

Conversations with my hubby of 25 years:
i crawl in to bed just after midnight, footyhatingpricklearsedbandwagoner rolls over and says "did you see the doggies won?'' me "I saw the cats lost and we are 4 points clear before we play them!''

this morning i get off the scales and fist pump the 2kg ive lost a week into a 20 day clean eating plan (thank god for revestorol wine! just a half glass!!) and hubby crawls out of bed and jumps on the scale, hes finally listening to my stop eating sugar nags. Judging by the look on his face, Apparently "'are you damn kidding me? ive bloody near killed myself for 2kg and you give up donuts and lose 8.1" is not the correct loving response!

If anyone is in the market for some brand name sunglasses the code below will get you 30% off 1 pair of full priced sunglasses or 40% off 2 or more full priced sunglasses from Sunglass Hut Australia.

Copy and paste: FP3, FP4


It's stated it expires on the 31st of October but all I know is that it worked for me today.

I can't think of a more appropriate place for this.

Apparently some scientists, presumably male, have determined that if women regularly swallow male semen it lessens the risk of miscarriage.


Women who regularly give their male partner oral sex may be less likely to suffer recurrent miscarriages, scientists claim.

Researchers believe swallowing semen strengthens a pregnant woman's immune system in a way which makes foetuses more likely to grow healthily.
It also lessens the chance of pregnancy in the first place and should be highly promoted and encouraged in 3rd world communities such as Sth Morang, much of Gippsland and Frankston.
